It looks like minor injury or infection. Keep an eye on it and on LJ's behavior. Monitor for redness, swelling, discharge or bleeding. Monitor LJ for lethargy, decreased appetite or lameness. If he develops any of the above symptoms, have him physically examined by your veterinarian. Keep his enclosure clean and make sure he keeps eating and stays hydrated.
